New York City Addresses

Four Points by Sheraton Manhattan SoHo Village66 Charlton Street [Link]Very centrally located hotel, in the middle of SoHo and between TriBeCa and Chelsea. The small rooms are a bit pricey and could maybe be upgraded to a higher standard for Sheraton standard.

Bubby's

[[Restaurants]]

Bubby's120 Hudson Street [Link]This restaurant in TriBeCa is an institution in New York City for brunches. Plates are not only good, but also large and tasty. Line up over the weekend is much larger than the menu and don't expect to still a table with a smile, bring a portable chair for your waiting at the entrance. Think laterally and go there at 8AM or 10PM for brunches. Must Try.

Blueberries Pancakes at Bubby's

The Odeon145 West Broadway [Link]Titled mirrors, red velvet banquettes and high ceilings make this place a typical French restaurant in the middle of TribeCa. Better make a booking call than showing up at the door without a reservation. No wonder why this restaurant has been there for so long.

202 RestaurantInside Chelsea Market [Link]One of these restaurant that sell clothes, accessories and wines. This large place with small tables is a perfect setting for drinks and discussions.

The Harrisson355 Greenwich Street [Link]Modern French Cuisine with old style service in TriBeCa.

Apotheke9 Doyers Street [Link]Don't get repulse by the strange window and push the door. A large bar at the back provides ample of drinks for the small tables disperses around the place. Cocktails are listed as cures for health conditions but go much better than any remedies I took in my life.

[[Ice Cream]]

The Original Chinatown Ice Cream Factory65 Bayard Street [Link]What's wrong with a homemade ice cream in Chinatown ? Maybe because the ice cream is warmer than the weather outside, but beside this small detail must try it.
